Description
When James and the rest of them talk about the other guys, their faces get all twisted so that they don't even look like themselves. Remy has just been released from juvenile detention and is back in his old neighborhood. He went away because he severely assaulted a guy who insulted his girlfriend, Asia. As a white boy dating an immigrant, Remy has had to withstand a lot of the racism that exists in the inner-city-from strangers, his family and even the police. When the white kids and the "outsiders" start scrapping over the local basketball court, Remy is caught between sticking up for his friends and siding with Asia.
